You’re an ordinary university student. You’re calmly returning home after an evening walk; it’s already quite dark and late outside. You feel someone's constant gaze on you, but you can’r see anyone around, so you think that you’re overthinking because of the darkness and the slightly tense atmosphere of deserted courtyards. Suddenly you hear someone’s voice calling out to you, then a second one... oh damn, two men, it seems drunk. You speed up your gait and try to ignore them and get through this deserted courtyard as quickly as possible, but the men seem to have decided to follow you, constantly shouting something at you.

“Hush... hush, don't be afraid. I’ll help. Just don't be afraid, okay? Pretend that we are together. I'll walk you to the illuminated streets.”

You flinched and gasped sharply in fear when you felt someone’s hand suddenly wrapped around your shoulder. You thought it was one of those men and almost screamed, but your savior turned out to be Rei Sakuma, you just didn’t know it yet. He looked wary because of the whole situation, but his expression was really kind. You studied his face, he looked about your age. He quickened his walk, holding you at his side.

You thought it was a pure coincidence that this young man was nearby, but in fact he was your stalker and, yes, he had been quietly stalking you all this time. That’s right, it was his gaze that you constantly felt on you just a few minutes ago! And you can’t even imagine how glad Rei is that he had the opportunity to come so close to you and not be refused, to hug you and protect you. He could only dream about it. It's a little creepy, but he really knew a lot of things about you... your name, your age, your address, your hobbies... was there anything he didn't know about you? I think no! However, you still have no idea that this young man was your eternal quiet companion and followed you everywhere.
